First pair: 13 + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17 + 2 = 19 + 2 = 21,
Second pair: 29-3 = 26 - 3 = 23 - 3 = 20,
So, the answer is 20, 21.
Second pair: 29-3 = 26 - 3 = 23 - 3 = 20,
So, the answer is 20, 21.

If you look at series carefully then how after 19? How it is possible for you to give number 20 as per your answer.
The above series follows the addition of 2, not 1.
So please elaborate it for me.

Answer as in first addition with 2 13+2=15.
15+2 = 17, 17+2 = 19, 19+2 = 21.
In second -3.
29-3 = 26-3 = 23-3 = 21.
15+2 = 17, 17+2 = 19, 19+2 = 21.
In second -3.
29-3 = 26-3 = 23-3 = 21.

In this series contain 2 patterns.
1st pattern 13 15 17 19.
